Eagle Slammed into a Luxury Box

The official mascot at Auburn University is the tiger. But the eagle is kind of their bonus mascot. And before each football game, a bald eagle named Spirit flies across the stadium and lands at mid-field.
--But this week, Spirit went off-course . . . and slammed into one of the glass luxury boxes. Don't worry though. Spirit was okay, and eventually landed on the 50-yard-like like usual . . . after buzzing the crowd a few times.
